Chapter 236: The Strength of the Pioneer Civilization
Seeing that they didn't believe that humans could stuff something as tall as Mount Everest into a wormhole, then Qiao Lu was relieved.
After all, Newton still has to make a neural sympathesy connection with the monster brain, and if he has this content in his memory, he will be completely exposed to the mastermind of the pioneer civilization.
If they just take it as a joke, that's even better.
Qiao Lu looked at the wormhole with a structure like a throat and continued to ask:
"Since it can't be passed under normal circumstances, is it possible for us to stretch this wormhole, just like cough cough, esophageal dilation surgery."
Esophageal dilation surgery is an effective treatment for esophageal strictures, and Qiao Lu wants to use a similar method to dilate the wormhole so that a behemoth as tall as Mount Everest can pass through it.
Seeing that Qiao Lu was still asking serious questions, Dr. Herman, who had always been meticulous, replied:
"It's not impossible, just like a nuclear bomb can blow up a wormhole, an explosion can have an impact on a wormhole. If we can control the power of the nuke and make it explode in the center of the wormhole without blowing it up, then we can make the wormhole bigger, but at the cost of reducing the life of the wormhole. ”
With such a violent expansion, it is absolutely impossible not to reduce the service life.
It's just that since the wormhole can be expanded, it is not completely impossible for the Wandering Earth to use the planetary engine to counterattack the pioneer civilization.
"Only," Dr. Herman said, "it requires very precise calculations that are impossible to do without going into the wormhole and examining them in detail, so I strongly discourage it." ”
Dr. Newton on the side also interjected: "Yes, if it were me, I wouldn't rush in when I can't be sure of anything, it's 100% death." Of course, it's the same if you want to use a nuclear bomb to blow up a wormhole. ”
Jolly had learned enough from Dr. Herman that he turned to Dr. Newton and asked:
"So, Dr. Newton, do you have any good suggestions?"
Finally it was his turn to perform, and Newton was very excited, and it was undoubtedly the happiest time for a scientist to be able to present his research results.
"Look at these monsters, they have completely different appearances, but their DNA structures are very similar. Just as we can distinguish human DNA from that of other animals, the DNA of these monsters is remarkably similar. They are cloning, or other products of bioengineering. ”
Newton took out two identical pieces of monster body tissue, indeed from two monsters with very different appearances.
"I think they are biological weapons made by some powerful alien civilization, and the reason why they send different monsters every time is because they are also looking for the most suitable biological weapon forms to fight on this planet, and the most suitable to use against us humans."
He put all the pictures of monsters that had appeared so far on the table, and arranged them in order from the weakest first-level monsters to the current highest-level fourth-level monsters.
"They continue to collect data from previous battles, and then strengthen these monsters in a targeted manner, and every time a monster appears, it will be stronger than before, because every monster we kill, it will make them know us a little better! They also know how to deal with us! ”
Newton's tone began to grow more frenzied, and what he said became more frightening:
"That's the truth about monster attacks! From level one to level four, it's just a trivial matter, and it's cannon fodder that they deliberately sent to collect intelligence! How strong can they actually make monsters? We simply don't know! The appearance of a fourth-level monster now is enough to make us lose a lot, but to them, it is just a detector in their world. ”
In fact, he is not alarmist, just like the three-body civilization in "The Three-Body Problem" can destroy more than 2,000 stellar warships of human civilization with only one detector - water droplets. The pioneer civilizations of the Pacific Rim have never demonstrated their true military prowess.
The so-called fourth-level monster is likely to be a worker bee in the swarm, and it is just sent to explore the environment of the earth.
Pioneer civilizations never had to think about how to occupy the planet, but how to occupy it at the lowest cost.
From the movie, they can let the earth go for hundreds of millions of years, and they know that the pioneer civilization has never paid the slightest attention to the earth, and even the so-called invasion is just a routine matter, and it is not taken seriously at all.
At present, the human beings in the Pacific Rim world are like a group of natives who tried their best to kill a special forces, thinking that they could fight against the entire modern army, but they just don't want to waste their energy on the natives.
Because the pioneer civilization is still invading dozens of other planets at the same time, some of them are more aggressive than the earth, but there are also places with higher level civilizations.
This point was revealed to Qiao Lu in the mission brief at the beginning.
"So what do we do? How do you know what their true strength is? Qiao Lu asked seriously.
Regarding this, it is also a problem that the wandering earth must face.
Newton walked over to a monster brain soaked in the culture fluid and said:
"It's a monster brain, unfortunately it's a little damaged, a little weak, but it's alive."
Next, Newton's eyes showed a hint of madness:
"Now, I think I can get into its brain and use the technology of two mecha hunters to establish a neural sympathetic connection, you must have experienced it too, haven't you?"
Unfortunately, he asked the wrong person this time. Qiao Lu and Liu Peiqiang have never experienced the so-called neural empathy connection at all, and naturally they don't know what this experience is.
However, Qiao Lu would still nod and say meaningfully: "I understand, I understand." ”
Liu Peiqiang almost didn't laugh on the side.
Newton, of course, didn't care about these details, and continued to say excitedly:
"Come to think of it, I can tell you exactly what is behind the wormhole, and what kind of military power this alien civilization has. Isn't that easier than getting into a wormhole? ”
Dr. Herman shook his head and said, "But Chief Pantcoster won't approve of you having synaesthesia with the monster, it's too dangerous, and the human brain can't withstand such a nerve shock." ”
In fact, Herman was also right, Newton was brainwashed and controlled by the pioneer in the second part of the Pacific Rim after he had synaesthesia with the monster brain.
In the face of pioneer civilizations, the human brain was equally vulnerable, and a neurosympathetic connection with a monster was equivalent to throwing itself into a net, gaining information and losing all its secrets.
Because of this, Qiao Lu needs Newton to synaesthesia with the monster brain, and the others will only provide more and more important information to the hive mastermind of the pioneer civilization!
